When does Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson take place? Rescheduled Fight Time and Date – NBC Chicago

Boxing legend Mike Tyson will return to the ring this week for the first time in nearly 20 years to face YouTube star-turned-boxer Jake Paul in the highly anticipated bout at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

The fight between Tyson and Paul, originally announced in March, was originally scheduled for July 20 but was postponed months earlier after Tyson, 57, fell ill on a flight. Tyson’s camp attributed the incident to an ulcer problem.

The match will be the first professional fight for Tyson – the first undisputed heavyweight champion in the three-belt era – since June 2005.

“Overall, my body is in better shape than it has been since the 1990s and I will soon be able to return to my full training program,” Tyson said in a statement marking the match’s first postponement. “Jake Paul, this may have bought you some time, but in the end you will still be unconscious and out of boxing forever. I appreciate everyone’s patience and can’t wait to deliver an unforgettable performance later this year.”

Paul, 27, is a YouTube star who has built a successful career as a prizefighter, primarily by fighting mixed martial arts fighters and boxing journalists.

“I fully support postponing the event so that Mike Tyson no longer has excuses on fight night,” Paul said in a statement earlier this year. “My fans know that I only want to face Iron Mike at my best, but let’s be clear: when he gets in the ring with me, I will be ready to get my W with a sensational finish.”
